Very nice! Runs like a dream. I keep getting my ass beat by wave 8 though.
How do you pick perks?

when you have possibility to pick a perk, middle click to switch buying menu to perks. Then, scroll with wheel to perk you'd like to pick (one of 5 aviable at time) and right click to pick it.

Exellent! I think you should use graphic from such 2d top-down shooters like RIP, KILL DEAL, Crimsonland, Tanks:ZoneOfDeath etc (i can send extracted images to you)...
Also it would be good if Picking A Perk be in offline (i mean Paused. to have a rest to read description and list perks). I understood how to buy weapon but i can't switch it (also i'd like to see my selected / used weapon icon).
I reach 14 wave and turned it off... becouse i have a lot of frienly aliens, spiders and other =) ithink it must have an diffrent colour / model (not enemy colour).
p.s: what the fabric do?
Good Luck! =)

I wanted to use only my own graphics, because i don't want my ass sued for copyright infringement. I can extract most of them by myself, but, I'm not likely to do it.
As for different color - true, friendly units should look different from enemies.
Factory spawns tanks at constant rate.
Buying a weapon actually spawns weapon power-up at position pointed by mouse.
About how to pick a perk/buy a weapon - watch the gameplay video - I added some notes which should be helpful, but it comes down to Right/Middle mouse button and mouse scroll.
Weapon icons are the next thing I'd like to do - with iconified class restrictions - but, It will be some work.
Buying interface is messed up - I'll have to change the way things are bought, but for now, I have other projects to work on.

That's ok, I don't have a middle mouse button anyway. Maybe something to change configuration, like keys and shit. I really like it though. Coming along nicely, Yan. Keep it up.

there are some keyboard keys set too:
M works for middle mouse button (switching category),
'/' works for right mouse button (buying)
',' '.' work for mouse scroll.

I'm making progress.
As for now, I've done this:
-active pause (you can pick perks and buy things when paused)
-reinforcements pricing (every unit in play increases prices of another unit, e.g. first factory costs 500, second 1000, third 1500 etc.)
-new buying menu
-all-new tesla gun
-improved lasers
-improved flamethrower
-icons for all weapons
-fixed lots of bugs
-rebalanced monsters
-more monsters after 10th wave
-removed wave notification screen
-changed tower placement
propably will be done before 0.7.0 release:
-m79 grenade launcher
-artillery fire
-bunker
-tesla tower
-infantry barracks
-monster nests
-weapon balancing
possibly, I'll do that too:
-medic/engineer
-creature/unit leftover graphics
